Love the visuals. Have to say though the game cooks my computer. was playing along and all of the sudden the heat warnings kicked on from the cooling system. First time I have seen it go above 50C on the video memory sensor.

After getting raped, I finally won three in a row. Wanna know how? I found that taking huge risk gets a win lol. I rush all my Zealots about 4 minutes into the game and I can take a good chunk out of the other's base. And OMG . . . Void Rays are the shiz.

Starcraft is not a "hide in your base and amass your army" type game. It rewards being aggressive. You need to be constantly scouting the enemy and trying to counter his pushes. That's what makes it so unique.

Void Ray rush is almost unfair if you catch your enemy unprepared. Destroys every early unit in the game except about a half dozen marines. And if it's charged up watch out.

I know that you are supposed to be aggressive, but that's where I get busted. Either I rush and get creamed, then have no one to defend my base, or I can be conservative and then get a nice rape surprise. I just suck at micro lol.

you said it so well. Starcraft is not a "hide in your base and amass your army" type game. It rewards being aggressive. You need to be constantly scouting the enemy and trying to counter his pushes. That's what makes it so unique. :]

You have to understand the opportune time to rush. And if you see something that will waste your army pull back and make the counters.

You need to memorize the build times of other races tech trees. For example, if you scout and see a Terran barracks throwing down a tech lab, and he's mining tons of gas... you can bet he's going to reaper rush you. So build stalkers, waste his reapers, then push into his base when you're done because at most he'll have a few marines and maybe a marauder. Teching into one tree early in the game means you don't have enough resources to get much of the other.

Set up choke points and attack his expansions. Don't let him get control of the map.

Oh yeah and learn to use hotkeys. Your micro will be 5x faster.
And watch replays of good games. You learn a lot from them.

yea it's all about scouting, but all in tactics can work, but i hate all in tactics. i changed my tactics against protoss a lot now, sticking to 1 bass/fast tier 2 and double gas, and hit with hydra/roach/zerglings before they can build their timing push. also fast tier 2 = overlord speed....best scout unit eva lol.

Imho increasing the root time of Spore Crawler was a bad idea. Early in the game it's the only thing that the zerg can use to defend against a void ray rush. Now I'll crush them even more.

Boord Lord nerf is no big deal, it still has the same dmg purpose, whats annoying is the fact that its the only seige 'type' weapon zerg has and its t3...compared to seige tanks/immortals and collossus (lance).

corrupter change is ****, should revert back (still needs a dmg buff against massive).

infestor change....is a big joke tbh, the reason behind it is so stupid....the ultralisk and void ray reasoning is pretty lols..
